Good price for good pho: if there's two of you, try the 11c (regular beef pho) and 16 (peanut satay). I'd never had a peanut satay pho -- if you're on the fence, try it, it's gooood. Service was quick and friendly. Vibe was chill, not super fancy (which I like). The menu has LOTS of noodle options, plus tofu/ veggie. Def worth it!

If you order takeout here, be careful to confirm the price before you hang up. Otherwise, you'll end up with a surprise on your bill.
The food is pretty much what you'd expect from any of the many casual Vietnamese restaurants around town. It's not high end by any means, but more just something you grab when you don't want to cook. -

I love their food. Hole in the place. But their food is delicious and cheap. Dinner for two with two appies and two entrees with a drink each under $45! Service is shit when the guy is serving but I don't really care about that as I go to this place often enough that I don't mind going up and grabbing my own fork from behind the counter lol.

It's places like these that I sorely miss ever since I left Toronto. It's low-key and cheap but not dirty, with the dining room filled with your typical Viet pho house decor.
The place was uncharacteristically slammed for a Monday, with a fair amount of take out/skip the dishes being done. Probably because of the Flames' playoff game. The lady running the front was very nice and diligent, despite the overwhelming amount of orders coming in.
I had the typical pho tai, which has a variety of meaty toppings. A medium will set you back 8.50 and is a pretty satisfying portion. The pho broth was piping hot, with your typical flavour profile of rich beef and asian spices; namely star anise. The rare beef was a tad overdone, but the brisket was quite tender. The tripe had good chew and the tendon was SUPER soft. The rice noodles are thinly cut (I prefer thicker) and was a very decent portion.
The spring rolls are the typical meat-filled ones you'll find anywhere, but they were still pretty solid. I finished the meal with a Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk. Order it halfway through your meal to give it time to brew, as it is done pour-over style. If you love VERY strong coffee, you'll love Vietnamese coffee.
All in all, very good experience here. -

Another staple for me in Calgary. I've tried many pho places here as there are so many, but Co Do has the best bang for your buck. Tasty pho that isn't overly oily, and I usually add extra beef for an additional $3. For my bf and I to eat two bowls of pho with extra beef it's $26. There were times we came here multiple times in a week especially when it was -20 outside.
The owners have memorized our order by now and they're always pleasant whenever we come in. Love Co Do!
